evo.com | Salomon Skis > A lightweight ski that's got enough guts to rip the spiciest lines around the world with complete confidence? Lots of people say no, but Cody Townsend begs to differ. The Salomon S/LAB QST Echo Skis were developed with 'The Fifty' in mind, and they've hit it out of the park not only for Cody but thousands of other backcountry nuts. Built with a super light Basalt/Glass construction around a core of Karuba and Poplar, the S/LAB QST Echo keeps its edge with Double Sidewall Tech and a Freeride Rocker Profile. Basalt Superlight Fibers Sintered Base We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. Karuba / Poplar Full Woodcore A woodcore from tip to tail offers optimum stability on snow and powerful rebound. Maximizes ski-to-snow contact and filters vibrations. Karuba is one of the lightest woods available for ski construction. Freeride Rocker Profile 25% Tip Rocker / Camber / 17% Tail Rocker The Salomon S/Lab Shift^2 MN 16 Alpine Touring Ski Bindings are the pick for expert freeriders getting sendy both in and out of the resort. This second generation Shift takes the revolutionary hybrid touring performance of the original to the next level with a new Power Block AFD, improved brake lock, and key areas beefed up for improved strength and durability. The new AFD features an all-new design with an aluminum 'Power Block' insert that eliminates slippage within the mechanism, providing improved security and 30% better power transfer. The toe wings and locking lever have both been reinforced, and the brake mechanism has firmed up to prevent accidental brake deployment in uphill mode. With a burly 7 - 16 DIN range designed to thrive in the most demanding terrain, this Shift is easily the best one yet. Locking Brakes Sturdier, more reliable brake lever construction that improves locking and avoids disengagement. Multi Norm Certified (MN) Compatible with all adult boot sole types, including ISO 5355 Alpine, ISO 9523 Touring, WTR (Walk to Ride) and GripWalk. We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. Low Profile Chassis A low stand height improves your feel for the terrain and enhances power transmission to the ski. Hike and Ride Switch Lever at toe shifts between hike and ski mode. | Salomon S/LAB QST Echo Skis 2027 - 165 Package (165 cm) + 110 AT Bindings in Black Size 165/110 | Aluminum
